INVITATION TO A DEDICATION AND RECEPTION

    All former members of Mr. D's bands are invited to help us dedicate a bronze plaque in his memory. The dedication will be help in Delamont Park at 7th and Arbutus in Vancouver. Please also bring your close ones.
 

    The ceremonies will be held - rain or 'shine -at the Park at 2:00 p.m. Saturday, June 16, 1984. A reception follows in Kits House at 7th Ave and Vine at 3:00 p.m. Complimentary light refreshments and beverages will be served. Bar facilities will be provided. One complimentary bar ticket will be given to each guest at the start. Although children are welcome at the park, we regret that limited facilities preclude admission of children to the reception.
 

    Members wishing to play in the Band are requested to be at the Park at 1:30 p.m. ready to play precisely at 1:45 p.m. Mr. Ken Sotvedt will be directing the band. Further information may be obtained by contacting Ken at 206-945-3479. Players should bring stands, lyres, and clothes pegs for stand-up outdoor play. Dress will be black shoes, white shirt, red or dark tie and navy blue jacket. Any of those who have Vancouver Kits Band caps and/or red capes (or other similar uniforms, from other of Mr. D's Bands) are requested to wear them.
 

    We do hope you will be able to attend to honour Mr. D. and also to renew your acquaintance of fellow members. To assist us in arranging the catering, we would appreciate knowing if you plan to attend.
